1) You must keep posts PG13.
2) If your pics are likely to be considered a little 'saucy' (sexy / suggestive shots are fine- so long as they are arty!) put NOT WORK SAFE/ NWS in your title.
3) When replying to a post, remember this is NOT the critique section.
4) Comments like " I love your eyes/ my god you are hot" are not helpful! Include them but please comment on the item/s being shown off too!
5) This Show Off section is only for showing off non hair related products, not making sales. Please make no references to eBay, A and P, or any kind of sales. You may offer the same item for sale in A and P, but no cross linking between A and P and Show Off. Show Off should be a place to comment and encourage each other; we don't want Show Off to become a billboard for sellers.

Sorry for the HORRIBLE picture. Hopefully you can make out some of the detail. They are covered in donuts, chocolate bars, ice cream, hearts and rhinestones. There's A LOT of stuff crammed on my nails lol.

I absolutely love this monochrome look, and your nails look so healthy and well-shaped. Great work. Do you think you could you share a few pointers/do a super-quick tute on exactly how you achieved this effect using a sponge, please?

Aww thank you
I'll make a tutorial and post it somewhere around the weekend

My boyfriend gave me these tiny cog decals in my Christmas stocking and I figured I would give them a bash for our NYE plans.

Unfortunately the base shade I used is crap (China Glaze Platinum) and takes around four coats to achieve any opacity but it was the palest grey in my selection. In future I think a shade without shimmer would work better as a base too as the blank spaces between the cog spokes are mattified slightly. Nails Inc The Southbank is on my wishlist anyway and would probably be the perfect shade to use. Any recs on other good quality creme pale greys welcomed!
